Is a funcs_by_name.csv available for the M100?
A somewhat outdated version is in the .diff attached to 2nd post (it is a text file). Or, you could compile finsig_thumb2 using CHDK trunk source and use it on your fw dump.
I'm currently planning to make use of the MMU of the CPU and try a non-traditional port.

It turned out that this camera does not allow permanent exmem allocations. For example, it's possible to trigger an assert by using the backup module and then trying to record a video. So, OPT_EXMEM_MALLOC is out of the question. There's 1GB RAM in this thing, but I'm having a hard time finding a few MB of it that isn't used for something.

:o Seems to be a mainstream brain?  :-X  :haha

Code: [Select]
int i=0; while (i<1); {i++;}  // No compilerwarning, but... Exception!! Vector 0x0C

Can you please not post unrelated things in this thread?
Anyway, I don't know where you placed that line of code, but it does something you may not have intended. Look for an extra character...

Thanks.
I’m locking for GetCameraInformationData_FW which I found in .diff.

On my M3 I called the function by address and made a memory dump with chdkptp.
Code: [Select]
rmem 0x10 0x02000000 -f=filenameIn the dump I look for <CameraInfo> with gives a lot of information about shutter count and errors.

Is it possible to call the function with Canon Basic and make a memory dump like a firmware dump?

I found a related eventproc that can produce an xml file. I don't know if the content is the same, but it's worth a try.
Code: [Select]
private sub Initialize()
    System.Create()
    CamInfo_Debug(1)
end sub

Thanks :)
That’s works very well on M100.
Two differences to my old M3 dump:

1) No ErrorLog, but maybe there are no Errors
2) No Battery Authentication

Should the script also work with the M3?
It didn't work with the M3 but, as always, with the M100 I needed several attempts. :(


Would that also work with the EOS R cameras?

This is because M100 uses LP-E12.
AFAIK LP-E17 still hasn't been fully cloned

Apparently, yes. All DIGIC 8 (and X) models I have a dump for have this eventproc. The same script would work on all of them (PowerShot, EOS M, EOS R).
